By Alice Bixler
About 7,000 to 8,000 years ago, when man turned from wandering and hunting to farming crops and domesticating livestock, his faithful dog once again became his partner. The dog's prey drive, which made it a successful hunter, was channeled in a less aggressive direction. Instead of pursuing and killing, the dog learned to dominate livestock. That talent made it possible for one shepherd and one or more dogs to control a herd of animals.
Each breed's region of origin, the particular jobs expected of the dog, the area's predators, and the livestock the dog herded affected the breed's appearance and its style of working. For instance, the Border Collie takes a low-to-the-ground stalking posture and stares sheep into submission. Other breeds employ a loose-eyed look and upright presence, and physically bump or block the sheep with their bodies. Any Briard owner will attest to how often they have been propelled forward by a nudge of that strong skull.
Working stylesHeaders, dogs that work from the front of the flock, frequently move to the front of the flock to turn or stop their charges.
Dogs that work from the rear are known as "heelers." They move cattle by nipping at the cows' weight-bearing hind legs, just above the hooves. Heelers are short in stature, so the kick that generally follows the dog's nip goes over their heads. Versatile dogs like the Australian Kelpie use both heading and heeling methods, running over the backs of the sheep to move from the front of the herd to the back and vice versa.
Some herding dogs, such as the Australian Cattle Dog, don't make a sound when working; others mouth off. The Pumi and the Bearded Collie bark loudly when working, causing the sheep to muster (gather together), making them easier to move. The noise also helps the shepherd locate the dog when herding in mountainous areas, where the dog might be out of sight.
The term "drover" is applied to dogs that move livestock long distances to market, down country lanes, and through villages and towns, such as the Old English Sheepdog. It was the drover's job to keep the livestock moving during the day, sometimes channeling them to single- or double-file lines in narrow streets or roads, and watching over them when they bedded down for the night.

I think with all these wonderful facts about Hillary, you may have allayed the fears of every leftist on this board that she is not liberal enough. It might be enough to rob much of the strong support here from the Elf and give it to the Hildebeast. If I rolled the way of most on this board, I would be loving Hillary right now--a lib's dream come true.

Design is important. As you are readers of Noupe, one of the best design magazines this side of the milky way, you are certainly aware of that. Recently I had the chance to take a deeper look at three design-oriented hotel concepts over here in Thailand. And I saw that design sometimes just isn't enough. For a hotel to be successful it must have a strong concept that appeals to an increasingly wide range of people from all over the world. I went to check the Millenium Resort, the Pimnara Hotel and the Color Kata Hotel, all three located in Phuket, Thailand. And this is my story…
Millenium Hotel
Two pools, five dining options and over 500 rooms spread across two mansion-like wings, both only meters away from the foreigner orientated, 2,000 sq m Jungceylon shopping mall and Phuket's notorious party district along Bangla Road. You can keep within five minutes of this 5 star resort and still stagger, wide-eyed and breathless, back onto the plane.
The Concept
There is no other phrase I can think that describes the concept of this hotel better than minimalistic hedonism. Just imagine this: You wake up, sometime on a hot, clear Monday afternoon, climb into your swimming trunks, fling open your French windows and dive dolphin like into the warm water of the Millennium Resort swimming pool. On the other side you order a cocktail before stretching your body out onto a lounger to dry. If you get too hot you can either visit the hotel spa around the corner for a massage or stroll through the lobby into the Jungceylon shopping mall to restock your wardrobe.
Of course all this is merely a prelude to Bangla Road's crazy nightlife. Discos, bars, nightclubs, restaurants, ping pong shows, massage parlors – as you hear so many westerners say – rather cryptically, and perhaps a little worryingly – whatever you do in Thailand, stays in Thailand.
A Walk Through the Millenium Hotel
To the left of the reception the Millennium has a large pool of water full of obscure bell-like sculptures. While they may symbolize some aspect of Thai culture, to most people they probably only reinforce the fact that the Millenium is a 5 star hotel.
This chic, minimalistic theme continues throughout the rest of the hotel.
The Millenium has six types of rooms: the superior room, the deluxe room, the grand deluxe room, the cabana room, the junior suite and the executive suite. The cheapest and smallest room is the superior room located on the beachside wing.
The most expensive room in the hotel – the cabana – is 40 sq m with a patio that leads straight into a private jacuzzi and the Lakeside swimming pool.
Public Opinion
- "The ponds and waterfalls in the hotel lobby were beautiful."
- "Never had to catch a taxi as everything is already right there."
- "You can walk through the hotel lobby and into the very heart of the Phuket shopping district."
- "All the basic necessities were – power adapters, room amenities and even bottles of juice."
- "In one of their bars you have a stunning view of a mountain in the background."
- "We had our own private Jacuzzi that lead into the communal pool and had the pool bar directly opposite."
- "The pool was a lot better on the lakeside and you had to walk through the shopping center to get there."
- "The room on the north side of the hotel faces a car park."
- "Get a room away from the clubs otherwise you can spend all night listening to the garbled speak of the drunks outside."
- "It is important to arrive at the wing you are staying at because they distance from each other."
- "All the so-called superior rooms are situated in the lesser of the two wings."
- "What is it with the glass window to the bathroom? I know you can pull down a blind, but still…"
- "The one gripe I had was having the bathroom sink above the minibar. That was a little weird."
The Final Judgement
Strangely for a five-star hotel, the Millenium seems a little unsure of its customer base. While business people and couples enjoy its chic design and extensive facilities some are turned off by its location in the middle of Phuket's party district. Certainly they could find cheaper and equally good options in quieter areas of the town. If people are looking to party they could just as easily stay at a nearby guesthouse that is within walking distance of all the facilities the hotel offers.
The Pimnara Hotel
Like the Millenium, the Pimnara Hotel sits right next to the Jungceylon shopping mall and like the Millenium it offers a fitness center and a spa, but why as it has no pool and only half the amount of services and facilities does it cost more? "But Sir", the hotel staff will reply, throwing back the question with a slight smile, "how many hotels have you stayed at where a different avant garde artist has designed each room?"
The Concept
Each room at the Pimnara represents a different type of holiday experience. If you are looking for a romantic holiday you can opt for the pink room where the sun shines through the window every morning, lighting up the bouquets of flowers that line the walls. On the other hand if you are looking to take advantage of Phuket's seedy nightlife you may enjoy staying at the windowless dark blue room where umbrellas and bowler hats hanging from the wall pegs throw long shadows across the room.
Overall the hotel's message is clear: they believe in individual taste and expression.
A Walk Through the Pimnara Hotel
The many artistic touches in the hotel's common areas are confounding, amusing and occasionally profound.

Walking up the stairs to your room, you will find the only constant theme in its design is its avante garde randomness.

The rooms themselves can be freaky,
and rather sweet and lovely.
The Public Opinion
- "Standard rooms are excellent value, overlooking the mall through French windows."
- "My favorite part was that we got to choose our room design."
- "The best part about the hotel is the location, it is right inside the Jungceylon Mall."
- "The hotel has a very modern feel with each room beautifully designed."
- "Though smack in the middle of the party district, you still get a good night's sleep."
- "Signs are not printed but hand-written in such a rushed looking way, your eyes brush over it before you realize it could actually be saying something important."
- "Superior rooms are situated in the heart of the hotel meaning they have no windows. Very claustrophobic, particularly if your room like ours is painted black."
- "The amount of decorations in the room make the room look small."
- "Apart from a heavy black curtain there is no boundary between the bath and the rest of the room."
The Final Judgement
What is great about this hotel is that they give their customers a choice between 11 different and very unique room designs. Some people may not appreciate such diversity, or any of the art itself, but if that is the case, they would have no other reason to stay. At the end of the day the Pimnara pretends to be nothing more than the boutique hotel it is.
The Color Kata Hotel
As a 2 star hotel, the Color Kata may not provide its clientele with the same standard of service as the Pimnara and the Millenium, but they have put an equal amount of thought into its design and concept. For example, while their rooms are only 22m sq, they have decorated each one in different color rhythms and images aimed to connect modern Phuket with its old, illustrious past.
The Concept
The Color Hotel summarizes its concept on the homepage of its website (in slightly poor English) "Exceptional conceptual from the core outline of the Chino Portuguese which is the significant architecture of the old Phuket. All exterior and interior design of the Color Kata will be representing the color of life from the glorious past of Phuket to nowadays."
Exactly what Sino-Portuguese encompasses is left unexplained – and the Internet isn't much help either – but from what I can gather it is a cross between Chinese design (innovative use of space), European colonial architecture (the images above the beds) and Thai culture (the colored cushions and furniture). To add to this retro feel the hotel provides each room with an iPad, a high-powered PC and an in-room sound system.
A Walk Through the Color Kata Hotel
The hotel's color theme is obvious as soon as you enter the reception.
Some of the objects such as this old bell reference the colonial architecture of old Phuket.
The designers have thought a long time over what the website calls the color rhythms of each room. This room uses light colors that suits its theme of nature.

The darker tones in this room give it a warmer feel than the entrance to the building in the image above the building suggests.

To add to this modern, retro feel, they have equipped each room with a PC and a sound system. And they even provide free Internet!

Public opinion
- "The design made good use of space, yet we still had all the amenities we needed."
- "A modern, futuristic design and a number of great electronic gadgets at your disposal."
- "The room I stayed in faced a wall, which only allowed in a tiny bit of light."
- "The rooms were small with hardly enough space for our bags."
- "The hanging bed felt unstable and made a noise every time we moved."
- "Walls were too thin. You could hear everything."
- "Why do they think it is a good idea, to have a toilet and showers with clear, glass walls? I like my privacy."
The Final Judgement
The problem with this hotel is, that they have filled so much space implementing their concept, that some customers complain there isn't much room left over for their bags. The end result is a hotel that promises far more than it can possibly deliver. But hey, it looks great…

Over $2 million, stored in plastic bags, has been stolen from the Cistercian Monastery of Santa Lucia in Zaragoza, Spain, according to European press reports.
"The sisters said that it was money that they had saved over several years," said a police spokeswoman.
In addition to their life of prayer, the nuns paint and restore books.

Top 5 Cocktails Guys Can't Order In Public
You're a man. You like beer. In fact, hurray, beer! But just because you are a virile male doesn't mean that you can't glance over at the girl holding a beverage with a delightful fruit skewer and think, "Gee, that looks fun and refreshing, I'll order that next!" Right? Wrong! There are certain cocktails it would be very hard to get away with ordering in public.

When a man wears a pink polo shirt, he is owning his sexuality. When he orders a pink and frothy cocktail, is he doing the same? That's up for you to decide, as Anvil is currently serving the Pink Lady on its 100 List.

Since this drink contains Jägermeister, a man might think he can order this Jolly Rancher shooter and get away with it. But really, there's no winning with a redheaded slut. The bartender and your date will either think you are a lascivious sex fiend, or that you enjoy schnapps, which most of us haven't seen since we were teenyboppers raiding our parents' cupboards back in 1982.

Milk prices could skyrocket if agreement isn't reached
Milk prices may go way up if Congress doesn't either extend the farm bill or write a new one.
Uncertainty with the farm bill leaves dairy farmers like Rena Johnson concerned about her future income. "Honestly, dairy farmers, we don't know what to expect if they don't pass a farm bill," says Johnson.
Phil Blevins with the Washington County, Virginia Extension for Agriculture says if Congress doesn't reach an agreement prices of dairy products could soar. "It'll revert back to an older pricing system, which will be based more on cost and production and of course cost of production is high," adds Blevins.
Blevins says if it does revert back to the 1949 law it could be good for the farmers because they would get more money for their raw milk; but, milk prices may be too high for people to buy. Either way farmers could lose money. "We want a good price for our milk but we want it to be a price that consumers can be able to pay for it," says Johnson.
Consumers could feel the effects in their wallet too because prices could go up on things like cheese and milk. "If the costs goes up to us, then we have to pass it along to stay in business," adds Cristy Hutton, who is a store manager of Food Country U.S.A.
Meanwhile farmers are already getting ready for next year even though they aren't sure how much they'll get paid. "We don't know what our income is going to be. We're shelling out money that we don't know how much we're going to get back in return," says Johnson.
Law makers have until midnight on December 31 to reach an agreement until prices revert back. It's not clear what the price of milk could be due to many factors, like supply and demand and gas prices.

Jerusalem of Gold: Does Israel Have a Corruption Problem?
Last month, Israel's attorney general, Yehuda Weinstein, announced that he was closing a 12-year investigation into Avigdor Lieberman, who until mid-December was the country's foreign minister. The investigation focused on the suspicion that the minister had used foreign corporations with fictitious owners to hide private funds that he had received while in office. "If brought to court," Weinstein explained, "the case would likely end in an acquittal." The attorney general did, however, decide to indict Lieberman for a relatively minor offence — breaching the public trust.
The effect that the indictment will have on Lieberman's political career is still uncertain. If he were found guilty, the court would still have to make a special declaration that he acted immorally in order to force him to take a hiatus from political life. And for now, even though Lieberman resigned from his post as foreign minister, election polls still suggest that his right-wing Yisrael Beiteinu party, which merged forces with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's Likud and formed the Likud-Beiteinu list, will share the leadership of the next coalition government. Assuming he receives a mild verdict, Lieberman will yet again be a senior minister in the Israeli government.
Off the record, officials in the Ministry of Justice admit that the watered-down outcome of the Lieberman investigation is an alarming sign that law enforcement may be losing ground in the battle against corrupt politicians. "There are three types of Knesset members," Mali Polishuk-Bloch, a retired Knesset member with a record of anticorruption activities, remarked recently. There are "those to whom envelopes with cash are offered and they take them, those who reject the offer, and those to whom no one dare make such an offer." The two latter groups seem to be becoming endangered species. Last month, three parliamentarians to whom no one would think of proposing a bribe — Dan Meridor, Benny Begin, and Michael Eitan — were shoved out of political life in the Likud Party primaries.

Innovation and HRM: Towards an Integrated Framework

Abstract: | This paper explores the connection between innovation (management) and human resource management. Much has been written about the both concepts separately, but there is no integrated conceptual framework available for the combination of the two. Our goal here is to develop such a framework. We do this in a number of steps, starting with a presentation of the existing approaches and models with respect to innovation (management) and HRM. This is followed by a search for the linkage between the two traditions, as a starting point for an integrated model and an in-depth case study regarding the link between innovation and HRM, in order to further develop our model. We conclude with the presentation of our model and with suggestions for further research.

Dixit, S and Deepa, R and Bhagwat, AK and Mehto, AK and Chouhan, AS and Nema, A and Upadhyay, A and Solanki, A (2011) Road Rage Menace: A Cross-sectional Study to Assess Driver Anger Level in Public Motor Vehicle Drivers in a City in Central India. [Journal (On-line/Unpaginated)]

Introduction: Road rage and aggressive driving is a prevalent condition in today's society due to motorists' frustrations during heavy traffic volumes. Objective: This study was done to assess the level of anger amongst the drivers of public transport vehicles in Indore, using Driving Anger Scale (DAS by Deffenbacher et. al.) and various factors affecting it. Material and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 135 drivers of Public transport vehicle drivers (Star bus, City-van and star cab drivers) in Indore to assess their anger level using Driving Anger Scale. The participants were required to record the amount of anger they would experience in response to each item in the scale (1=not at all angry, 2=a little angry, 3=some anger, 4=much anger, 5=very much angry). Results: The mean DAS score in Indore was found to be 3.013 and in the three organizations namely Star bus drivers, City van drivers and Star cab drivers was 2.92, 3.08 and 3.04 respectively. The DAS score of drivers with respect to the 6 sub-scales were: hostile gestures (Star bus -3.42,City van -3.67,Star cab -3.38), slow driving (Star bus -2.73,City van driv-2.78,Star cab-3.17), traffic obstructions (Star bus-2.85,City van -3.25,Star cab-3.18), discourtesy (Star bus -3.23,City van-3.33,Star cab -3.25)and police presence (Star bus -2.15,City van -1.99,Star cab -2.78), illegal driving (Star bus -3.04,City van -3.14,Star cab -2.89). The DAS scores of the drivers did not vary significantly with age group, experience, and educational qualification. Conclusion: Though DAS scores did not vary between the three groups of drivers, however average level anger for various given circumstances commonly found in the Indian traffic scenario was on the higher side.

Read and Reread. Read and reread the poem you've chosen to write about, with a mind to your present topic, the poem's theme. Make use of the "What Is Close Reading?" handout as you take careful notes and underline all relevant words, phrases, and images. |
2. |
Formulate a thesis. Make sure your thesis is specific enough to be covered adequately in the space of your discussion. A common trap of a thesis is to simply list techniques that develop a theme: In "A Description of the Morning," Swift uses diction, tone, and imagery to develop the speaker's disgust at the morning scene. That is as much as to say, Swift writes a poem that develops the speaker's disgust with the morning scene. Instead: The disgust of Swift's speaker calls attention to the class differences upon which London society depends. To demonstrate this, the writer would discuss the elements of the poem (such as diction, tone, and imagery) that establish this action. Refer to the handout titled "Thesis vs. Topic." |

4. |
Organize your argument logically. Be sure to stay with a single idea and develop it thoroughly. Do not introduce ideas that will distract your reader from your central point. Be sure that each paragraph has a controlling idea and that each paragraph leads logically to the next. |
5. |
Prove it. A quotation should be used as evidence to prove your assertions. All general statements should be supported with evidence from the text. Be sure to analyze the quotation and discuss its significance. |
6. |
Be specific. Stay away from vague generalizations. For instance, stating that "the poem was interesting" says close to nothing; instead, argue for what made it interesting to you. |
7. |
Conclusion. Your last paragraph should synthesize, not summarize. You should resolve -- and not merely repeat -- your argument. |
8. |
Revise and edit. Read your paper out loud to yourself. Often you will hear what your eyes will miss. |
9. |
Don't panic. Remember this is the first (ungraded) draft before a revision. Do your very best, but also remember that you have plenty of time to work on improving your writing. |

Critical Essay by Stephen B. Cushman
SOURCE: "Stanzas, Organic Myth, and the Metaformalism of A. R. Ammons," in American Literature, Vol. 59, No. 4, December, 1987, pp. 513-27.
Cushman is an American educator and critic. In the following essay, he attempts to define the structural principle of Ammons's verse, focusing on such features as stanza shape and length, typography, and linguistic patterns.
In his long poem "The Ridge Farm" (1983), A. R. Ammons continues his persistent meditation on poetic form:
don't think we don't
know one breaks
form open because he fears
its bearing in on him …
and one hugs form because
he fears dissolution, openness,
we know, we know:
one needs stanza to take
sharp interest in and
one interest the stanza
down the road to the wilderness:
This passage uses the word "form" in suggestive ways. Unlike the "completed, external form" Ammons renounces in the...

Following Michael Jordan's fifth title run, the legendary shooting guard signed an unprecedented $33 million USD contract – the most valuable contract in NBA history – with the Chicago Bulls for the '97-'98 season, which of course proved to be worth every penny. Featuring the signature of MJ, former Bulls General Manager Jerry Krause and Financial Officer Irwin Mandel, the historical 24-page contract was purchased back in 2000 for less than $1,000 USD by an anonymous buyer. Now with a current bid of $47,500 USD at the time of posting, the internet auction can be seen here until its closes on July 30. "It's hard to compare this to anything we've sold," said Chris Ivy, Heritage Auctions' director. "It's Jordan, who is in a class by himself, and, to our knowledge, this is the only Jordan playing contract to ever surface."

Bulgaria's government tabled on Wednesday a bill in parliament reinstating a ban on hunting brown bears that had been eased in 2010 after a man was mauled to death.
The legislation, allowing a quota of three percent of Bulgaria's bear population to be killed, had been criticised by environmentalists and the European Commission.
The small Balkan country has one of Europe's largest bear populations with as many as 800 animals roaming Bulgaria's mountains, often attacking flocks and beehives in villages.
Data by the farming ministry showed that 27 bear-hunting permits were issued in 2011 and 2012 but only two animals were actually hunted down legally, while poaching continued.

Development of an Embedded Carbon Emissions Indicator - Producing a Time Series of Input-Output Tables and Embedded Carbon Dioxide Emissions for the UK by Using a MRIO Data Optimisation System
Measuring emissions on a consumption basis will produce different numbers for all economies than those reported on under the Kyoto Protocol. For the UK, for example, our consumption emissions in 2004 were 37 per cent higher than the UK Greenhouse Gas Inventory which is based on territorial emissions under UN rules.
This suggests that while the UK has made progress in reducing its own carbon dioxide emissions, these reductions have been offset by increased emissions in other countries through the consumption of imported goods and services. Trade data also indicates an increasing dominance of emissions embedded in UK imports from newly emerging economies such as China, India and Russia.
Dr Tommy Wiedmann from SEI, who led the study, said: "Accounting for emissions from a consumption perspective provides insight into the global impacts of local consumption and support for the view that in an increasingly globalised market all economies need to play their part in reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

He who does not work, neither shall he eat
He who does not work, neither shall he eat is a Biblical aphorism derived from II Thessalonians 3:10[1].
New Testament[edit]
This concept is derived directly from the Second Epistle of Paul the Apostle (with Silvanus and Timothy) to the Thessalonians, in which Paul writes:
- εἴ τις οὐ θέλει ἐργάζεσθαι μηδὲ ἐσθιέτω
that is,
- If anyone is not willing to work, let him not eat.[2]
The Greek phrase οὐ θέλει ἐργάζεσθαι means "is not willing to work". Other English translations render this as "would"[3] or "will not work",[4] which may confuse readers unaccustomed to this use of the verb "will" in the archaic sense of "want to, desire to".
In the spring of 1609, John Smith cited the aphorism to the colonists of Jamestown:
Countrymen, the long experience of our late miseries I hope is sufficient to persuade everyone to a present correction of himself, And think not that either my pains nor the adventurers' purses will ever maintain you in idleness and sloth...
...the greater part must be more industrious, or starve...
You must obey this now for a law, that he that will not work shall not eat (except by sickness he be disabled). For the labors of thirty or forty honest and industrious men shall not be consumed to maintain a hundred and fifty idle loiterers.[5]
Soviet Union[edit]
According to Lenin, "He who does not work shall not eat" is a necessary principle under socialism, the preliminary phase of the evolution towards communist society. The phrase appears in his 1917 work, The State and Revolution. Through this slogan Lenin explains that in socialist states only productive individuals could be allowed access to the articles of consumption.
The socialist principle, "He who does not work shall not eat", is already realized; the other socialist principle, "An equal amount of products for an equal amount of labor", is also already realized. But this is not yet communism, and it does not yet abolish "bourgeois law", which gives unequal individuals, in return for unequal (really unequal) amounts of labor, equal amounts of products.
This is a "defect", says Marx, but it is unavoidable in the first phase of communism; for if we are not to indulge in utopianism, we must not think that having overthrown capitalism people will at once learn to work for society without any rules of law. (Chapter 5, Section 3, "The First Phase of Communist Society")
In accordance with Lenin's understanding of the socialist state, article twelve of the 1936 Soviet Constitution states:
In the USSR work is a duty and a matter of honor for every able-bodied citizen, in accordance with the principle: "He who does not work, neither shall he eat."
In Lenin's writing, this was not so much directed at lazy or unproductive workers,[6][7] but rather the bourgeoisie. (Marxist theory defines the bourgeoisie as the group of those who buy the labor-power of workers and engage it in the process of production, deriving profits from the surplus value thus expropriated. Once communism was realised, that is, after the abolition of property and the law of value, no-one would live off the labor of others.[8])
Neither did the principle apply to those rendered incapable of work by old age or disability. These groups would have a right to society's products because they were not at fault for their condition. The elderly, in particular, had worked during their youth, and so could not be denied life's basic necessities. The Soviet state accordingly provided a basic level of social security.[9]
The principle was enunciated in the Russian Constitution of 1918.
Leon Trotsky wrote that: "The old principle: who does not work shall not eat, has been replaced with a new one: who does not obey shall not eat."[10][11]

HRC Report on Gender-Expansive Youth Validates New Facebook Gender Options
February 13, 2014 by HRC staff
In a move that will make great strides in supporting young people with a range of gender identities, Facebook today announced it has expanded the way users can identify their gender on their profile. The need for the social media giant's change is bolstered by a new report released today on gender-expansive youth – or young respondents who identified as transgender or chose "other" and wrote in their own terms – published by the Human Rights Campaign Foundation in partnership with Gender Spectrum.
In a survey of 10,000 LGBT youth, nearly 10 percent of respondents fall into the "gender-expansive" grouping – underscoring the need for moves like the one Facebook announced today. The report further analyzes the results of a groundbreaking survey of LGBT-identified youth first reported in "Growing Up LGBT in America." Of the 925 gender-expansive respondents, one-third identified as transgender and two-thirds wrote in their own terms, such as queer, gender-queer, gender fluid and non-binary.
"Over the past few years, a person's Facebook profile truly has become their online identity, and now Facebook has taken a milestone step to allow countless people to more honestly and accurately represent themselves," said HRC President Chad Griffin. "Facebook's action is one that I hope others heed in supporting individuals' multifaceted identities."
Unfortunately, the data also reveal that many of these gender-expansive youth find themselves in an environment that is not supportive of their health and well-being. Less than half (43 percent) of the gender-expansive youth report having an adult in their family they could turn to if they felt worried or sad. And gender-expansive youth are much less likely to report "definitely fitting in" in their community than their peers. Only 5 percent reported "definitely fitting in," with 30 percent reporting "definitely not fitting in."
The report shows that only 4 percent of the gender-expansive youth reported being "very happy," nearly seven times less than their peers. Nearly one in 10 gender-expansive youth reported being "very unhappy."
Some of the report's other key findings:
- More than four in 10 (42 percent) gender-expansive youth report "frequently" or "often" being called names involving anti-gay slurs and 40 percent report being excluded by peers "frequently" or "often;"
- Nearly half of gender-expansive youth (49 percent) reported experimenting with alcohol and drugs, double the rate of their peers;
- More than 50 percent of gender-expansive youth reported "never participating" in the majority of activities listed in the survey (e.g., sports, church/religious youth groups and service organizations). If it weren't for after school activities, online LGBT community and school Gay Straight Alliances, gender-expansive youth would not be engaged in activities that build confidence and social skills.
"The rising tide of equality cannot leave anyone behind, and this new report shows that we've got to work harder than ever before to make sure that every young person is guaranteed an equal future, no matter their gender identity or expression," said Ellen Kahn, Director of the HRC Children, Youth and Families Program, and a professional social worker. "These teens have incredible honesty in the way they express themselves, and the caregivers in their lives have a lot to learn from them. It's up to us to ensure that they have the networks of support and understanding that every child needs to thrive."
"This report reminds us how critical it is for each of us to discuss these important issues with the youth in our lives" said Lisa Kenney, Executive Director of Gender Spectrum. "You don't need to be an expert. It really comes down to doing three things: educate yourself on gender; create a safe space to discuss and explore issues related to gender identity and expression; and advocate for greater gender-inclusiveness in your community."
Examples of youth identifying outside a binary have been increasingly highlighted in the media. Lori Duron, author of Raising My Rainbow, wrote on HRC's blog today about her young son's experience as a gender-expansive youth, pointing to this report as a clarion call to adults to do more for these youth.
The report is being released at the HRC Foundation's inaugural Time to THRIVE conference, a gathering of more than 600 youth-serving professionals focusing on building awareness and cultural competency, learning current and emerging best practices, and gathering resources from leading experts and national organizations working with LGBT youth. Time to THRIVE is being co-presented by the National Education Association and the American Counseling Association, and sponsored by AT&T.
This report, part of a series of efforts to analyze the landscape for LGBT youth, includes a call to action for parents, caregivers and educators of gender-expansive youth. A full copy of the report is available at: www.hrc.org/youth-gender.

Summary: Committee Responsibilities After the 2003-04 Ten-Year Review Department Committees were vested with additional responsibility and authority for routine decisions (decisions that do not require a faculty vote) and for vetting and recommending a course of action to the full faculty for its consideration and vote. The purpose of this change was to alleviate some administrative burden on the faculty as a whole. The faculty agreed that the hard work and recommendations of committees would be trusted, respected, and seriously considered. Executive Committee The Department's Executive Committee serves in an advisory capacity to the Chair and plays an important role in setting and reviewing department policies and procedures. The Executive Committee: · reviews requests for travel funding, research funding, visiting scholars, and special requests for financial resources. · is consulted on matters of faculty retention and competitive offers. · oversees the work of other Department committees. · is responsible for the annual review of adjunct/affiliate faculty appointments and makes a recommendation for reappointment action (renewal or non-renewal) at the Department's November faculty meeting.

A to Z Guest Ranch

Longitude: -94.6795
These reviews are the opinion of an RVParkReviews' member and not the views of RVParkReviews.com
Date of Stay: September, 2007 - $20.00
This is a guest ranch, not an RV park. Once you manage to navigate a mile of nasty gravel road to get in, you are rewarded with a very nice hidden camp. This is a family run place, and once you stay there you do feel like part of their family. They'll even cook meals for you (extra cost), and you eat with their family. You can purchase trail rides and maybe ATV's too. Site is in a valley between high hills, very pretty. It is very close to center of the Talimena Scenic Drive. We did not have the best site. It was set back in a corral area; so there were some issues with flies and smells (it is a horse ranch, right?). We will go back and try another site at another time. Fall should be awesome here. We camped at A to Z Guest Ranch in a Travel Trailer.

Reviewed by 1 customer Displaying review 1 Pros
Best Uses Comments: I wasted my money on this product! It was so thin that it would sometimes tear before I could even hang it. I started with staples and that was a disaster and so I switched to tape. I had to add thick, clear packing tape to the ends as I attached the streamer to the wall, this was to give it some kind of durability. I used it outside, for my kids birthday party. A subtle wind would crinkle and crease the material which made it look terrible. A stronger wind would tear it apart. I was half way done with hanging in it (2 hours) when I got so frustrated, I ripped it all down. I never ended up using at at all. To make matters worse, It was an expensive failure!

I was trying to install my COD4 on my 21.5" iMac running 10.6.3 when the installation failed. The user manual asked me to insert the DVD, double click on the icon, and then drag the folder from the DVD to the location on my hard drive. I dragged the folder onto my desktop, and the copying started out fine. Then, about a quarter of the way through, it says that a file couldn't be read or written, and it was a .m4a file. At such, the copying couldn't be completed, and I cannot install the game. And yes, the game is the Mac compatible version. HELP. |

Try copying it where it actually should go -- your Applications folder.
If that doesn't work, try checking the disc for nicks or scratches. Give it a wipe with a lint-free (preferably microfibre) cloth -- NOT in a circle like you would with records, but in a straight line from the inner ring outwards, then try again. If that fails, contact the manufacturer for a replacement disk. |

Fingers crossed! What is the difference between copying it into the Application folder as oppose to copying it onto the desktop? |

OK, I think I found the reason why it happened.
The DVD-ROM drive on my iMac was formatted to Region 3, while my external DVD-ROM drive was formatted to Region 1. I'm not sure if this is a factor, or anything, but it is copying from the external drive into the Applications folder just fine at this point. My girlfriend bought this game for me from the U.S., which is why I have two drives formatted to different regions. I'm not sure if it's the cause but, it seems to be working now. Fingers crossed! Thanks guys. |

The state House has passed a bill that will not allow lawmakers to leave office and immediately start lobbying former colleagues.House Bill 13 is sponsored by State Representative John Kowalko, and it would require lawmakers to wait one year after leaving the General Assembly before becoming a lobbyist. A violation would be a misdemeanor, and it applies to any legislator serving after January 1, 2015.
There was one amendment to exempt uncompensated lobbying activities from the one-year waiting period. The bill now heads to the Senate for consideration.

If you are traveling to Port Arthur in the next few months, just a reminder about the Arthur Highway roadworks during early 2014. Several sections of the Arthur Highway between Sorell and Port Arthur are having major road works done. This may lead to short delays in your journey, so please allow a bit more time. The good news is that, once complete, the highway will be a little less winding and the trip just a little easier. Meanwhile, please drive safely and to the conditions.
